Quantum Sensing, Quantum Optics, and Quantum Information Systems: Advancing Precision and Sustainability in Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology

Abstract

Quantum sensing, quantum optics, and quantum information systems—leveraging quantum coherence, entanglement, and photon manipulation—are transforming aquaculture and marine biotechnology by enabling ultra-sensitive monitoring, non-invasive imaging, and secure data transmission. This review synthesizes 2022–2025 research on these technologies for marine environmental management, aquaculture health optimization, and bioprocess innovation. Key applications include quantum sensor-based pathogen detection, quantum optical imaging of larval development, and quantum information systems for secure aquaculture data sharing. We address challenges such as quantum decoherence in seawater and scalability, while highlighting solutions like error-corrected quantum sensors and low-cost quantum optical setups. This work underscores how these quantum systems drive efficiency, sustainability, and resilience in global aquaculture.
